One or two of the men, who had been laboring rather hard for several days, declared that they felt refreshed after the way the first issue had been received. Served Hickory First. No effort was made to catch the , mails. As was stated in the intro ductory editorial, Hickory comes first, Catawba county second, and this sec tion third. So it was Hickory first, of course. The mail papers got off later, but hereafter it will be the ob ject of the management not only to serve Hickory, but this entire section. No subscriber need fear that his name will be left off the honor roll, which is being rapidly made up. The mails will carry papers anywhere.

Much credit is due him for it was through his untiring ef forts, loyal support, and efficient training that he won the co-operation of the student body.

Secretary Lansing today announced that no de cision had been reached on Germany's I , . .. , i . proposal to arbitrate the Arabic cas. ,he secretary met Ambassador Gernstorff at noon. Bernstorff is try ing to bring the subject to a point where it can be arbitrated. It is generally believed that before the United States will consent to ar bitrate, it will be necessary to con firm Germany's assurances that sub marine commanders have been in structed not to attack on liners. The declaration that the United States will not discuss the Lusitania case until the Arabic case has been ; disposed of increases the importance of the controversy. SWEET POTATO .

Pres- ident Shuford, who is known as a leader in well doing, brought in 19 voluntary subscriptions, and said he was goinjr to pursuade other friends to like it.

The Austro German armies on the eastern iront, still striving to overwhelm the Rus sian forces, are making progress in all sections except south Galicia, where the Muscovites are withdvav ing stubbornly. In the north where the Russian line has been straightened by the with- drawal of forces, General von Hin- denberg is directing a violent drive in the direction of the crossing at the Dvina. In the center Crown Prince Leopold has forced his way across the Selonka and is attacking in the vicin ity of the Skidel. In the south Gen eral von Mackehsen is on both siies of the Pinsk railroad and is pressing eastward. These movements have re sulted in the capture of seve:al thou sand Russian prisoners. The final objective of the Teutons is still a matter of conjecture, but Petrograd authorities declare there is no danger of Petragrad's falling in- side of a year. On the western front there is little to report. ! I i It appears that Bulgaria has struck Terence probably will be taken vvea a bargain with Turkey and it is stat- nesday or Thursday.

The United States marshal has been instructed by the department of justice to consider whether Archibald j violated one of the statutes.

All that will be asked is a safe conduct to Ger many if the United States govern ment decides that the captain's con nection in the Dumba case is sufficient for his withdrawal. It will only be necessary to communicate with the German embassy, according to diplo matic usage, and that is the view Count von Bernstorff takes. Berlin would not have to be consulted.
